I think this is said in the sense: Good riddance. ( we're better off without him/her).

I cannot vouch fo this but after searching for it it cropped up as a comment on the death of a dictator and the loss of a possibly not very useful footballer( not dead, just left the team under a cloud).

Certainly the saying exists, anyway.

I hope more answers turn up to this interesting question.

I have never heard this phrase in Spanish, but I think it means that his death is a blessing in disguise. May death bring him as much glory as peace to us.

En ingles? Literal translation = So much glory he has as peace he leaves us.

I'm going to take a shot here and say it has something to do with someone's death perhaps.

Maybe: with so much glory he leaves us in peace?

Natives, here is your question! Help us out please.
